The Real Saints Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Have conditional offers from Glasgow, Strathclyde and Dundee. I will make Glasgow my firm choice and Dundee my back-up. Doubt I will achieve the necessary grades for Glasgow though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_binos Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Who did that Marketing lecture? It's the only one I've missed, but it doesn't sound like I missed much. Some dude with fairly long black hair and specs. Never seen him before in my puff. He barely spoke and didn't even state what the videos were about. You didn't miss much. There were only around 50 folk who turned up for it. Wasnae amused 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 (edited) I've recently decided to start caring about uni after barely attending, and not studying, in the first semester and in result failing one exam, not going to a second and just passing the third by 5%. Things are looking better, I read up at least 2 times a week and I've had all my essays at least started 3 weeks in advance. I've only had one graded unit so far this semester and it was a presentation but I got 84% for it. Just wait until Law Stud sees this.

Raith Against The Machine Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 I've written about half of mine, which is actually ahead of schedule. I've still got ideas and stuff too, I'm struggling to cope with how well the situation is looking compared to this morning! Are you doing the essay or the report? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Kevin Of Kilsyth Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The essay. Looked more straightforward. Still quite a lot tae do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The essay. Looked more straightforward. Still quite a lot tae do. Aye, I'm doing the essay too. The report just looked like a more complicated, more difficult piece of work. I can't seem to get the journal search engine stuff to work today, so that's a bit bollocks, but if it's still not working tonight I'll be asking for an extension, methinks. Still, I've got quite a lot done already, so it's not too bad. Actually finding articles about "Marketing-led organisations" seems impossible anyway, I've had to just steal stuff from other areas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Kevin Of Kilsyth Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Fuckin WebCT has been down all night. Only just back on now. Just finished about half an hour ago. Been up the entire night without a wink of sleep. Relatively happy with the final effort so we will see how it goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gc_smfc Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Got my first exam tomorrow morning (Africa). Relatively confident that I covered everything especially Sachs view on development. I would be in a much better position if the department hadn't decided to have our dissertation proposal hand in the same week that our exams start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad Lib Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Sources and Institutions of Scots Law Exam tomorrow afternoon. Not looking forward to it. I'm relying on at least 2 of 4 questions being good ones, or I might actually just cry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can take in cheat notes, just get a meerkat to keep edge-y! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 On Monday I had Inference, which wasn't too bad, but today I had Applied Modelling and it was quite difficult. 3 out of the 4 questions were unlike anything in the past papers. I only have to do 3 out of 4, so I picked the straightforward one, which I hopefully did well in, and then had to battle my way through two of the others. Still, that's 2 down, 8 to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraser_smfc Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Who did that Marketing lecture? It's the only one I've missed, but it doesn't sound like I missed much. I had a multiple choice "Tourism Management" test yesterday, and it was more like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? rather than a test of academic ability. The first question, and I shit you not, was: "Where is the Ponte Vecchio?" A. Naples B. Rome C. Florence D. Milan For some reason I have an image in my head of the lights in the lecture theatre dimming down dramatically for the start of the exam, and Chris Tarrant reading out the questions in a leather swivvely (sp?) chair. It amuses me greatly. I have 2 exams down, 1 to go. Politics has already been marked, and a B3 was very pleasing to get, as I've been averaging a C1 or so since September. One exam to go and that's on Monday. A much more difficult layout than the previous 2, and this one makes up 60% of the entire module, as opposed to the previous 2 where they didn't matter a great deal in comparison. I've just got to plod through a shitload of material, but on the whole should be ok. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanny paddery Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 On Monday I had Inference Thats funny my Tv has been playing up too, i think there is a guy in the gold forum trying to sell 1 for £50 if you are interested ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CK Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Would any of the guys studying Politics at Strathclyde recommend it? I'm meeting with my advisor of studies next week and hopefully try to switch courses for next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I dunno, it depends on what you're interested in. I've found the first two years to be okay, Professor Mitchell is boring beyond belief in first year but the rest of the lecturers are fine. The questions for essays and exams tend to be fairly open-ended so if you study the right areas they should come up and there's no nasty tricks. If you do the necessary work it's fine, if not you'll struggle. On that note, I got my Modern Political Thought Essay back, a nice 68, which means there's no pressure at all on the monster exam. Got 70 and 68 for my history essays, hoping to break into 70s for the overall classes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Attempting to revise for my calculus exam, which is on Friday. It's really not going well, because my notes are all online and the internet is a great distraction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
